The Industry
Standard for extreme reliability
The AR series has set the industry
standard for reliability for over
10 years.
The AR-200R use solid state media
for recording and playback eliminating
failures due to mechanical movements
found in CD and DVD players and
guaranteeing no long term sound
degradation.
Easily integrate
messages with external audio
External audio sources like FM broadcasts
or CD playback can be connected
to inputs on the AR's rear panel.
The external audio will then be
ducked to a user selectable level
when a message is played by the
AR.
Multi-Channel
Playback
Using one AR-3000R as the master,
multiple AR-200R units can be locked
together for sample-accurate playback
of up to 64 tracks. The system can
also be synchronized to external
show control using MTC or MMC.
High quality
audio with long recording times
The AR-200R support 16 bit/ 48 kHz/linear
recording as well as RDAC (Roland
Digital Audio Coding) technology
that offers very long recording
times with virtually no loss of
sound quality. Over 70 hours of
audio can be recorded to the optional
memory card.
Installable
anywhere
The AR-200R can be powered
by AC or 9-24V DC. The compact size,
rugged design, and power supply
flexibility enables the installation
of the AR-200R/S in just about any
application environment.
No Moving
Parts
The AR series is world renowned
for its reliability. Audio is stored
and played back from Compact Flash
or other solid state memory, providing
much more reliable performance than
cassettes, CDs, DVDs, HDDs and other
mechanical recording devices. Since
audio or MIDI data is recorded directly
to and played back from the memory
card. the mechanical wear and tear
and failure over time associated
with rotating or winding media is
completely eliminated.
24bit, 48kHz
Linear Recording
The AR series' 24-bit, 48kHz
audio sets the standard in audio
quality for fixed installation applications.
The AR series represents the industry
standard in high quality audio with
up to 48 kHz, 24 bit linear recording
and playback. Users can select from
a range of sample rates and recording
times including the latest Roland
Digital Audio Coding (RDAC) technology,
which uses less memory with virtually
no loss of sound quality and offers
over 140 hours of recording time.
For demanding applications up to
2,000 phrases can be stored on the
AR-3000R.
